Broadband Update Broadband governance is the highest priority, and the city lacks it currently 3 Desired Outcomes Allowing the City to deliver Economic Development, Digital Inclusion, and Internet of Things Support Visible to The key benefits for the City, residents and businesses are determined by the infrastructure and residents policy. Without those, world class outputs are impossible Economic Development Digital Inclusion Internet of Things 2 Infrastructure and Policy: Leading to a better build-out of for wireline and wireless infrastructure Broadband infrastructure–e.g., which technologies, how pervasive, and how equitable—will be Crucial determined by how the city governs the topic and which policies it enacts Hybrid enabling Model conditions 1 Governance and Funding: Creating consolidated and skillful governance and appropriate funding allows the City to guide powerful market forces How the city organizes itself to regulate and encourage broadband and digital inclusion topics is the foundation of how the markets function in the city
Broadband Update Success will require investment to guide market forces Example: Implementation of the Hybrid Model City goal Governance and policy Market-Led requirements Scenario • Infrastructure built Scale up wireless • Policy/strategy inequitably or not at all internet widely • Attachment • Smart City potential not and equitably • Rate realized • Aesthetics • Economic development • Deployment hampered by slow speed • Interconnection agreement Hybrid-Led • Permit processing Scenario • Management • Safety oversight • Coordinated policy • Market monitoring • Easy-to-navigate process • Fair value to the city • Equitable deployment
